MIGUEL MEDINA

Hundreds of people of Kurdish origin take part in a demonstration on January 12, 2013 in Paris, two days after three Kurdish women were found shot dead at Paris Kurdistan Information Bureau. Thousands of Kurds from all over Europe are expected in Paris today for what is expected to be an angry protest over the killing of three female activists shot dead at least three times in the head, giving further credence to the theory of an execution-style hit. Kurdish activists have accused Turkey or rogue nationalist elements in the country's military of being behind the killings. AFP PHOTO / MIGUEL MEDINA
